Proposed site development and previously established contaminationIsland:
CuraçaoEnvironmental soil survey at the Courtyard Marriott development site
During the geotechnical survey at the site of this future hotel, a high level of mineral oil contamination was discovered in the subsoil. The further survey:
- determined the level and area of the soil contaminated with oil
- established the quality of the groundwater within the contamination contour
The survey can be used for future excavation works for the purpose of new construction. The contaminated soil can then be excavated and removed safely, environmentally responsibly and cost-effectively.
